ÔÇ£There should be a lot of pride in this locker room,ÔÇØ safety Antrel Rolle said. ÔÇ£With that being said, hopefully guys did go in the mirror and look at themselves. I know I surely did. But I donÔÇÖt wait ÔÇÿtil after the game. I was doing it during the game, after the game, when I got home today, tomorrow, IÔÇÖm going to continue to look at myself in the mirror, and ask myself, ÔÇÿAm I being the best possible player I can be for this team?ÔÇÖ And you know, IÔÇÖm not going to stop doing that ÔÇÿtil we get to where we need to be.ÔÇØ

BBD, Mario has an X factor, yes. He also rarely catches with his hands, doesn't go across the middle well, and putting him against these corners is not as favorable at least imo because they have the ability to mirror him and he is not one to fight for the ball in the air.

[I will finish this thought later]

You're selling Mario short. He's made some incredible catches this year, he goes up the middle, and he gets more separation than any of our WRs.

I'm not the biggest Mario fan either bc he does make mental mistakes, and will have a killer drop here and there, but he's not as bad as he's made out to be.

In fact, when/if he does leave in FA, when he goes to a less complicated offense, like a WCO for example, I expect Mario to really flourish. He's actually the most talented WR we have. He's just not a great fit for this system, but he'll beast it in a simpler offense that can utilize his speed more effectively.

I agree! If he goes to system where he doesn't need a PHd he will do very well. Just run around and make plays without having to read the defense with such detail like a doctor does to a patient.

I agree BBD. I posted something the other day about this but what the hell happened between the 49'ers game and the Eagles game? It's like the team just turned themselves into the off position. I don't really understand it.

To be fair though, I'm against re-signing him. I just think we'll overpay, and I hate overpaying for players, especially WRs who aren't certified #1 WRs.

Especially if he needs surgery.

That surgery bothers me.. I almost want to say don't re-sign anyone who is damaged goods. This goes with Hixon or even TT if he wants a lot of money. All these guys with messed up knees probably won't be the same. I'd rather sign or draft healthier players.

I like MM. I like him when we drafted him. He is a homerun threat, but I think this system doesn't help him. You know how I feel about this offensive system. I would rather sign Turner as an OC. Bring the Air C to NY!!!! That's my 2nd favorite system to the Air Raid!

My expectations for this season did a 180 after the Eagles game. I just don't see it this year, it's not our year.

Let's enjoy the ride for what it is, and see what happens. But I'm not expecting much. I just don't think we have the DC to outcoach anyone, and I think our entire team is too finesse to do any damage this season.
